Mahtab Hussain’s The Quiet Town of Tipton

For nearly two years Mahtab Hussain worked closely with Muslim residents in Tipton, making a series of photographic portraits of the people and places that he found there. The photographic portraits are accompanied by a series of texts, taken from interviews with different generations of Muslim residents living in the town. Experiences are shared about individual’s upbringings in (and in some cases arrivals to), the UK, from the 1960s to the present day.
We have collaborated with Dewi Lewis Publishing to produce a beautiful book that can be purchased from their website.
